After setting out the cars, ATN M715 continued south a bit to work Progress Rail, so FanFan61618 and I continued on into Boaz to wait for them. Eventually, they came on through on their way to Gadsden, having worked their last customer for the day.
As you can see, since I last recorded this crossing all the way back in October of 2014, nothing really major has changed here. The closest signal to me got some new gate lights, while the Main Street signal got a new gate arm (but kept the same gate lights), but nothing else at this crossing has changed. I don't mind though, as I do quite like this nice early-2000s CSX install.
